Every single morning......

I'm gonna do a longer post on Wednesday or Thursday because I'm having my last paper on Wednesday. YAY! Yup, I promise it'll be a long one alright?

RP

Today is the release of O'levels results and it definitely brings back so many memories from last year.

We were still having so much fun at km's place, watching Taken while eating chips, chasing one another with nerf guns, had so much fun till we didn't realised that we were late so we had to cabbed down to school. And because of our hair, our attire and all, we called Cole's daddy who we thought could smuggle us in via his car, but were proved wrong when Mr Chia made all of us alighted and did attire check on us. DAMMIT. And then when the results were released...... I tried to contain my tears, but I failed to. Friends came up to me, hugged me, comforted me, encouraged me.

That night, I couldn't sleep because I had no idea what I should do with the next stage of my life. A part of me was happy that I was eligible for Poly, but another part of me wasn't satisfied with my results. But look at where I am right now.

I honestly didn't expect myself to enjoy life in Republic Poly, since ALL of my close friends are going TP. At first, I was posted to RP Business Information System, but I couldn't see myself enjoying this course at all because I had ZERO interest in it. So I decided to try JPSAE to appeal for another course instead. So using my leadership skills, I JPSAE to RP Hotel and Hospitality Management and one fine day, I got a letter telling me to go down for an interview. And I went! It was a mass School of Hospitality interview and the ending result was.....

My appeal was a success!
Though it wasn't to the course that I want, but at least I can see myself doing a hospitality job in the future.

During Orientation Camp, I honestly did not have that much fun. I felt out of place, awkward, lonely and all. I couldn't blend in no matter how hard I tried. I so badly was scolding myself for not studying harder, scoring better to be able to get into TP instead, where all my friends are at. I totally wasn't looking forward to first day of school because I could already imagine my lonely life in RP for the next 3 years. But I was proved wrong.

No words can express how blessed I am to have such lovely classmates, best part is probably an all girls class. And definitely, being in an all girls class, we will definitely have arguments, bitching and all. I mean come on, we're girls for a reason. HAHA. And standard girls' rule, either we clique well, or we don't. Then after semester 1 ended, I went for camps and my social circle expanded! I got to know more people from different other courses, and it's amazing how we still keep in touch and some are even my close friends now. I can really say this right now,

I am enjoying life in Republic Polytechnic.

I actually preferred RP's education method than the other polys and also feel that it'll be good use in the future, and really the friendships that I've established in RP are really priceless, and I definitely still want to expand it wider and bigger.

I know like how people would be like, "Huh, RP?! The worst polytechnic in Singapore. I don't want to go." But really, there are no such thing as the best polytechnic or the worst polytechnic. It's freaking Poly and not Secondary School! Everybody takes different courses, tell me how do you determine the ranking criteria then? I'm sure different polys, different courses have different standards. And who says poly determines your future life? No it doesn't. If it does, you would have already be deemed the stupidest kid on earth. (I'M JUST KIDDING BTW HAHA) So really, the school that you attend DOES NOT determine what your life would be like in the future. I do hear many stories of RP graduates being offered to extend their internship because the company love and enjoy their skills, attitude etc.

So don't be afraid to come to Republic Poly! 

The people here are really nice and friendly!
Plus there are lots of handsome, cute guys and pretty, cute girls around too!!!! ^^ HAHA

 

  

 

ok.

Indeed, things cannot go back to how it used to be overnight. After all it took months to get to there, so I guess I just have to slowly get over it. I'm trying my best. I'll keep up to my promises and let everything go. As time passed by, as I stopped thinking about it, though I still do sometimes, I can actually feel that it's not affecting me as much as how it used to be. I guess it's a sign that I am letting go. This time round I've learnt that life can be easier if I just don't hold on. I'll be lying if I say I don't miss any of those memories, because I still do. But then, yup they are just memories...

This will be my last time.

Finally, RP Open House is overrrrr!

It has been a good 3 days of Open House, though I only participated in 2 days (Day 1 and Day 3) because I've exams on day 2.... So on the first day, I came school late because I've got my backbone check up in the morning. I'm happy because nothing went wrong, but sad because the scar is going to be permanent.... HAIZ. Insecurity level increased. Obviously we had to wait at every stop, for registration, for xray, for consultation, for payment. Spent like 2.5 hours at SGH? Went straight to school after that. My role was to give a guided tour to the my assigned secondary school students, Evergreen Sec. So along with my team, we took the bus over to EGSS and we had to wait for like 1.5 hours till the students end class. Chilled at the canteen and got to know another better. 

Me and Joey paired up (THANK GOODNESS) and we took the last bus, along with our leader Kairen. On the bus to RP, we introduced ourselves to our class and luckily there were responses. We were really afraid that they would dao usssss. Upon reaching RP, we brought them around RP and this girl taught us a Evergreen cheer and at first we found it weird.... But then slowly it was addictive. HAHA. I'm really thankfully for this class because according to the other student ambassadors, the class were mischievous, or damn dao kind.... Had fun with them.

The next day, not down for duty because I got Anatomy and Physiology UT, and I'm gonna fail it AGAIN this time. HAIZ. I really really..... am disappointed. with myself. HAIZ.

Dinner with Jo at Yoshinoya. Funny how we even considered getting a family feast for 4 when we almost died having an upsized meal each. HAHA. Then we went to the library and taught her htm. Actually I wasn't confident at all. I scared I give her wrong info sia..... >< 

Day 3. Last day of Open House, was assigned Data Entry as duty but we all finished within an hour and spent the rest of the day walking around, or mainly at SOH booth, talking to Mr Gan and Wenting. It was fun ah. We walked around and got to try out some interesting inventions of the other schools. Gonna miss Open House... And finally, I saw the Muthu that everyone was talking about!!!! 

Okay now let's leave the pictures to talk.
